It's been a successful flash game for years now, seemingly poised to take on the mobile market. The game didn't just come out of nowhere, like Flappy Bird. And that's really just the beginning: once you encounter a fan you get a slightly better idea of what the game is after. It's all about brutal ragdoll physics, as you'll quickly find out the first time your little character gets his feet clipped off and has to flail around on the back off his vehicle while it finishes the course.
That's the basic premise, but it's not really the secret to its success. Happy Wheels has you controlling a businessman on a segue (for now, there are more characters promised as "coming soon") navigating a series of 2D obstacles. Happy Wheels has been sitting at the top of the free download charts on the app store for a few days now, and it's become clear that is is that game of the moment. Every once in a while, you get one of those out-of-nowehere Flappy Bird style successes, where millions of people around the world all of a sudden become gripped by some bizarre new distraction. Sure, most of the money gets made by big, established developers, but that doesn't mean anything is certain. One of the great things about the app store is how unpredictable it is, especially when it comes to free apps. If you're reading this, there's a fair chance just finished playing Happy Wheels, or you're about to.
